“In the financial sector, more Russian banks will be disconnected from the SWIFT system,” RIA Novosti quoted Borrell as saying on the air of the VPI TV channel.
He did not specify which banks he had in mind.
In February, the head of the Central Bank, Elvira Nabiullina, said that the Russian financial infrastructure would work without interruption.
According to her, the domestic Financial Messaging System (SPFS) can replace SWIFT.
